Saia
Saia is the best selection of our Nero d’Avola grapes. Its name comes from the irrigation canals created to collect rainwater by the Arabs centuries ago. The traditional head-training system and aging in small oak bottles highlight the characteristics of this grape, which offers intense, complex, round, and elegant wines.
